Where the appendix is infected due to a piece of food, a seed etc.. is stuck inside it. This causes it ti redden, expand and make you very ill. If it ruptures, the contents of the gut spills into the abdomen causing quick death. An appenidicectamy is the operation to remove an infected appendix, and it takes about 30 mins and isn't all that bad as far as operations go.

Hope this helps.
